Airline delegation meets with Scotland’s shippers as Prestwick’s cements its position as key hub for China markets
Glasgow Prestwick Airport (PIK) hosted a senior delegation from China Southern Air Logistics for a two-day visit aimed at strengthening collaboration and supporting Scotland’s export growth.
The visit gave the airline direct insight into Scotland’s high-value industries, including whisky and seafood, helping to deepen understanding of producers’ and freight forwarders’ needs.
“We were pleased to welcome the delegation from China Southern Air Logistics to Prestwick,” said Ian Forgie, Chief Executive Officer, Glasgow Prestwick Airport.
“The visit provided an excellent opportunity to explore how we can work together for mutual benefit and continue to strengthen Scotland’s global export connections.”
During the visit, the airport hosted meetings and site tours highlighting its cargo expertise, connectivity, and ability to deliver a fully in-house service, from handling to fuelling.
The visit followed a similar engagement with Air China Cargo earlier this month, reinforcing Prestwick’s commitment to developing long-term partnerships that drive growth in Scotland’s air cargo sector.
